† SINKING or SOURCING ( as pertaining to Electro Cam Corp. products )
Sinking means that when the logic is true and the output (or input device) is ON, the output (or input device) is providing a
DC common or ground to the connected device.
Sourcing means that when the logic is true and the output (or input device) is ON, the output (or input device) is providing
a +DC voltage to the connected device.
This information is important when interfacing an Electro Cam Corp. product with another electronic device. The terms
SINKING / SOURCING are not used in the same context by all manufacturers. If you are using an Electro Cam Corp.
product input to an Allen-Bradley 1746-IN16 “sinking” input card* or similar A-B device, you have to supply a +DC voltage to
this card, NOT a DC common or ground. In these cases,
Sinking is what the card does with the input voltage; sinks it to
common or ground.
* Other manufacturers include, but not limited to: Koyo (formerly GE Series 1, Texas Instruments, or Siemens SIMATIC PLS’s) that use
descriptions similar to Allen-Bradley.
